I agree with alas on this one for Ballard. But, I have a different opinion on Oaks. I think Oaks is of the opinion he believes anything he can defend legally. I think he decides what he believes as "truth" by this process. I don't think facts matter at all--I think the guy is a pure legalistic apologist at the core.
Yeah, maybe. I can't say for sure...
Yeah, I won't give Oaks the benefit of the doubt. Every time I try to understand him, my brain starts puking. The way he wants to twist ideas like freedom of religion into the right to show hate, just makes my brain nauseas. His suggestions for dealing with gay children show that he loves rules more than he loves his own children. Because if he loved his children, he would realize that cutting their spouse out of your life is rejection. Period.
